So... Listen, I need to apologize to people for what happened last month. The whole 'hey there's young idiot Tommy being an asshole' thing. And the neglecting my work while that was happening.

I dealt with a lot of BS magic shit when I was younger that I had a lot less explanations for and so I didn't trust shit well.

Teach me to be careful what I say.

Anyway, if you need me to do something to, like, make it better, let me know. I don't remember all of the shit that happened or who I saw.

I will resist temptation, though trying something new does seem important at times… Perhaps not like that. Though I dare say my way of speaking isn’t what makes me an artist, I suppose people might see that as important.

[doubled_speed]

Nah, it's not your way of speaking at all. But your attitude definitely screams it.

[bufubulous]

My attitude is loudly artistic, yes I think that sounds correct as far as descriptions go… I can’t see myself presenting the attitude of something else, at least.

[doubled_speed]

Loudly artistic. Damn, that's a way to put it.

[bufubulous]

Thank you, I thought it sounded accurate based on your observation.

[doubled_speed]

I mean, you're not wrong. Man, hilarious there.

[bufubulous]

I hadn’t thought it amusing, but I shall take your word for it?

[doubled_speed]

Good. That's smart. I'm great at telling what is hilarious.

[bufubulous]

Are you? That seems like something of a special skill, I think.

[doubled_speed]

Damn fucking right.

[bufubulous]

I shall add that to the list with ‘impressively fast.’

[ He added with a smile. ]

[doubled_speed]

Fastest man you know.

[bufubulous]

You certainly are. Even having seen many of the abilities I have, I can’t say that I’ve seen anything near that level.

[doubled_speed]

Abilities huh?

[bufubulous]

Indeed, there are a lot of different ones around this place, after all.

[ And among his teammates, really. He still tries to not say too much concerning them, though. ]

[doubled_speed]

How intriguingly vague

[bufubulous]

Am I being vague? I apologize. I thought I was being more general about it, what with how many people are here?

[doubled_speed]

Nah, that happens back home. Heroes who doesn't want to talk about what they can do.

[bufubulous]

Oh! I see what you mean now. You were referring to me more than everyone else.

[ He supposed the whole mask thing in his memory share a while back might have been a giveaway... ]

I suppose I’ve never had an occasion to share that here, beyond the few instances where my help was needed. It might be a bit complicated to explain compared to showing, though. I have the ability to call upon something called a persona, a representation of my inner self, that assists in fighting. It does give me something of a boost in agility, but nothing compared to yourself.

[doubled_speed]

Oh, like that Mitsuru lady. Huh. Do you know her perhaps?

[bufubulous]

Yes! It is like that, though our experiences and methods somewhat differ. And while I know her here, I actually didn’t in my own world.

[doubled_speed]

Huh. Interesting. Though I guess I don't know Magik back home, even though I know of her.

[bufubulous]

I wasn’t aware you and she were from the same world, either? Well, I didn’t know of Mitsuru, but I believe your point stands. It’s not entirely strange to not know someone from our worlds.

[doubled_speed]

Yeah. She's just more up in different sorts of mutant stuff. My boyfriend back home has mentioned her.

[bufubulous]

So she would be on a different team than your own, I see.

[ A friend of a boyfriend, or acquaintance of a boyfriend? It was a bit vague if they were friends on not; he supposed. ]
